Lines of longitude, also known as meridians, are imaginary lines that run from the North Pole to the South Pole on Earth. They help to define the geographic coordinates of a specific location by measuring the distance in degrees east or west of the Prime Meridian, which runs through Greenwich, England. Together with lines of latitude, they form a grid system that helps us navigate and locate places on Earth's surface.
